Linux in Wireless Adapter Driver: A 25Word Guide（linux的无线网卡驱动）

Since the release of Linux in 1991, it has become the leading operating system for the latest PCs, laptops, and other network devices. While Linux is the best choice for secure and reliable systems, one task that may seem daunting at first is setting-up a wireless adapter driver. To alleviate this worry, here is a 25-word guide to getting up and running with the right wireless adapter driver for your Linux install:

1. Start by conducting an internet search to identify the wireless device model.

2. Once identified, look at available Linux wireless adapter drivers for the device.

3. Now, choose the appropriate driver, looking for ones specific to your Linux version (Kernel).

4. Download the driver, open a terminal window, and switch to the user root via typing “sudo su -“.

5. Navigate to the download directory and run the following command to install the driver “make install”.

6. Reboot the system, and the driver should be active.

7. If step 6 doesn’t work, run “modprobe

By following each of these steps, you can reliably and securely get your Linux machine up and running with the right wireless adapter driver. On some machines, you may have to tweak a few settings in order to use the correct DNS servers or security specification. An example could be:

$sudo vim /etc/resolv.conf

nameserver 8.8.8.8

$sudo vim /etc/network/interfaces

auto wlan0

iface wlan0 inet dhcp

wpa-ssid “NETWORK-NAME”

wpa-psk “NETWORK-PASSWORD”

However, for most users, once the driver is installed, you’ll be able to reliably access the internet via a wireless connection. Just remember to keep your drivers updated with the latest security patches!
